• Always be aware of all power lines when decorating outdoors. Never work near overhead power lines or anywhere there is a possibility of contacting an overhead power line – either directly or indirectly – with a ladder or other piece of equipment.
• Do not string lights on outdoor trees that are growing near or into power lines.

It’s a Wonderful Light!

• Consider using energy-efficient ENERGY STAR certified decorative light strings, which use up to 75 percent less energy than conventional incandescent lights strands and are cool to the touch.
